Virtual Meeting Guidelines
Until we are free and clear of pandemic restrictions and health risks, our local will continue to conduct our Committee, Executive, and GMM meetings over video conference. This is far from ideal, but has proven a responsible way to keep conducting the business of our local safely for the time being. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Meeting Access
Any CUPW 730 member with a computer or smartphone and an internet connection is able to participate in our virtual GMMs via free video conferencing. Those wishing to attend the meeting that do not own, or have access to, a computer or smartphone, or need a sign-language aid, should contact our office [treasurer@cupwedm.net or 780-423-9000 ext. 2].
Registration & Deadlines
1. Deadlines: Those registering after the deadline will not be admitted. Every notice clearly states the GMM date and registration procedure. All notices are shared well in advance, and are advertised via bulletins and cupw730.ca. For special circumstances, or help registering, contact treasurer@cupwedm.net before the deadline.
2. Registration Requirements: Participants must include all the requested registration information. Only CUPW 730 members in good standing and guests of the local executive are permitted to attend the GMM. This is done to preserve meeting security and ensure voting integrity.
3. Confirmation: Your registration will be reviewed for confirmation after the registration deadline. If approved, you will receive another email confirming your registration as well as a link to the GMM.
